Description

Historic Vista estate with two magnificent residences has 5 bedrooms and 5.5 bathrooms combined. Set on 0.61 acres and offering over 7,000 sq. ft. under roof (approx.), as follows: main house 3,686; garages and air-conditioned workshop 1,222; carriage house 978; porches 830 and balconies 342. Sitting on almost two-thirds of an acre (0.61) with majestic Oaks and Palm trees in much sought after Monte Vista, just north of downtown San Antonio. This Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired Prairie Style home is so close to many popular destinations including the famous downtown River Walk, theaters, stadiums, airport, and excellent shopping and restaurants. The main house offers a porte cochere and behind it is the Carriage House. The main house has 3 bedrooms, 3 1/2 bathrooms, 3 living areas, 3 gas fireplaces and a kitchen with stainless steel commercial grade appliances. The interior includes the original wood from 1910, which is white birch throughout, in the floors, staircases, trim and ceilings. Stained and lead glass windows featured throughout. Huge covered front porch. The 3 levels are easily accessed by an elevator that was installed sometime in the '90s. The 3rd level shows off the wood in the beautiful cathedral type ceilings and would make a great game room. The current owner had fire sprinklers installed in both residences. Many windows include security shutters (some electric). The carriage house which was built to match the historic charm of the main residence was permitted in 2006 and received its Certificate of Occupancy from the City of San Antonio in 2008. The lower level has garage space for three vehicles plus one additional fourth vehicle space courtesy of a professional car lift. An air-conditioned work-shop and a wine storage room are the icing on the cake. Upstairs comprises a spacious open plan living area, plus kitchen and two bedrooms, each with a private full bathroom. The brickwork on this property is exquisite. Rare and 'lifetime' lasting copper roof on both residences. This property is priced more than $100K below the Appraisal District value and is offered at a fraction of its replacement cost.
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.

    "It can be a little sketchy at night, being so close to downtown. A lot of homeless around the gas stations, but other than the common vagrant, there isn't much to worry about besides the occasional drunk driver which San Antonio has had a problem with in general. Safe neighborhood, good schools, great distance between three major highways. "

    "Excellent central location; about a mile to the San Antonio River and less than 2 to the River Walk.Easy access to highways. Beautiful historic district with lovely homes. Always see people out walking! Parochial/private schools may be the best in town; public schools are more average. Excellent restaurants are in walking distance. Active community. Excellent public transit (bus). Several B & Bs in neighborhood. Wonderful mix of palatial estates, beautiful historic homes of varied architecture, modest well-kept single family homes, cottages, as well as some multifamily homes. Many have great yards for children. Singles often live in large carriage house apartments and enjoy easy access to downtown. Many retirees live here and enjoy walking the safe streets."
